I just got back from hunting and the outfitter was continually making comments about me smoking cigars and the deer smelling them and then running off before i could shoot. I told the outfitter that I always smoke cigars while hunting. 2/3rds of the way through a bolivar belicoso I snagged this...

It's been a long time since I smoked a memorable Cuban cigar. In fact, it was two years ago and I remember it very well. I bought two boxes of Esplendidos, the first box I opened contained a cigar unlike any other I've ever smoked, it was stunning. I smoked everycigar in that box box and none...

Some of you may remember that I lost my dad June last year, it really threw me for a loop. We didn't speak for three years prior to his death and I blame myself for that arrogance. I stopped doing everything I enjoyed (yes smoking cigars too!), it was some sort of self punishment for the whole...

After reading my latest edition of Cigar Aficionado, I was struck by a letter sent to Marvin (Article: "out of the humidor") from a reader who received a gift from her in laws who were recently vacationing in Canada. The gift was a sealed box of Monte #2's. With knowledge of the enormous...

It's been quite a while since I posted on this board. I lost my father a few months ago and have had a really hard time recovering. Posting, chatting and playing cards haven't even been part of my daily thought process. I really don't know if this is "The come back" post or not but I wanted to...

Because I have never heard of anyone doing this before I can only imagine what most of you will think. When I nip a cigar I will take the nipped portion and put it in my mouth. It's a lot like pre light draw for me. I can tell a lot about a cigar from the taste of the tobacco. I slightly chew...

I just broke the seal on a box of these dated Apr 00 and all I can say is wholy chit!. If you love Partagas like I do you would fall in love with the 8-9-8. I have yet to smoke a Cuban that holds a match to rested 8-9-8. I fear the box won't last longer than a few weeks. Rich

I only smoked the Siglo IV and wasn't very impressed. I haven't bought any more Cohibas because the 10 or so I smoked haven't been that great, maybe a 86 in my book. With all the hype surrounding these cigar I know there has to be some incredible vitolas out there but I don't know which ones...

I just finished a box of #5 robusto and IMHO the cigar is probably a 88 or 89 rated cigar. It also seems that in a pass or trade a lot of folks have the #5 in their arsenal and not much else from DCM. Is the #5 about the best cigar DCM puts out? So far the DCM has the nicest box for under...
